SMFH… Pennsylvania Woman Killed After Turning Down Man At Bar The family of a Pittsburgh woman is reeling after authorities say she was gunned down while trying to leave a local bar. 29-year-old Janese Talton-Jackson was killed after a man asked for her number and she turned down his advances. WVTae reports: A mother of two was killed in a shooting early Friday morning in Homewood, and a suspect who was shot during a chase was taken to the hospital and has since been released into custody, Pittsburgh police said. Charles McKinney, 41, of Penn Hills is charged with the homicide of Janese Talton-Jackson, 29, of Penn Hills. Police went to the areas of N. Lang Avenue and Upland Street after a ShotSpotter report around 1:50 a.m. had detected gunfire in the area. While there, police encountered McKinney in a silver car and made a traffic stop. Police were talking with McKinney when they received a dispatch that a woman had been shot in the area. According to police, MicKinney sped off when he heard this. Police chased him through Homewood and fired at him just passed the intersection of Frankstown Avenue and Oakwood Street. He was then taken into custody. Investigators said McKinney attempted to talk to Talton-Jackson inside a bar but she declined. McKinney then followed her outside and shot her. Janese’s murder is adding to the calls for men to stop the dangerous practice of street harassment. Women have a right to say “no” and not be faced with violence or retribution.
